The Cannabis Compound Database includes information about more than 750 compounds found in the cannabis plant. Through an extensive literature search of peer-reviewed and professional sources, the physical and chemical…
Using dynamic light scattering (DLS), nanometer particle size and polydispersity (PDI) of an emulsion or nanoparticle is determined. For beverages that incorporate emulsions and also nanoparticle drug product development, these…
Encapsulation efficiency is used to understand how much active ingredient (cannabinoids) is found within each nanoparticle and how much is lost in the process of formulating. Process losses due to…
This test is used for general identification of sample compounds by determining functional groups within each compound. It can be used to characterize different cannabis cultivars to help you match the right material…
This test measures the heat transfer during chemical reactions and can help determine the kinetics of a reaction. Calorimetry is an integral part of process scale-up and chemical engineering. Alternatively, in conjunction with other tests, a comparative study of the amphipathic…
This test determines the temperature at which a compound moves from the solid to the liquid state. Understanding this element of the product’s behavior can assist with product characterization, manufacturing, and packaging. Using the proper…
This test characterizes, quantifies, and assesses the purity of single compounds or mixtures in solutions or solid states. The results produce a chemical fingerprint of the composition of your product, which can identify unknowns in formulations and offer insights into possible…
A nanoemulsion or nanoparticle that does not change over time is defined as stable or as having a long shelf-life. Minimal differences in size and quality are desired and indicative…
Nanoparticles have the potential to stabilize the compounds they encapsulate. This test helps determine if the nanoparticles maintain the potency of the original compounds over time which is important in…
These tests provide information about the crystal structure, chemical composition, and the physical properties of your product. Single Crystal Method: Results offer detailed information on the atomic structure of compounds. Single crystals are…
This test uses high-resolution Liquid Chromatography (LC) and Gas Chromatography (GC) instruments to reveal all the metabolites in your product. It can help determine sample purity and consistency of compounds beyond just THC and CBD. Possible avenues of exploration include taxonomy of chemovars, plant cultivation optimization,…
Dissolution is a bench test that quantifies the release of active ingredients from a particle in an environment mimicking physiological conditions (temperature, pH). The dissolution profile of a product can…
This process docks ligands into a protein model, resulting in protein-ligand complexes. Analysis of provided or publicly available crystal structure into defined binding pocket with top 5 poses (if applicable) reported,…
This test captures gasses and aerosols formed during smoking and vaping. Coupled with an analysis on a Gas Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy (GCMS) instrument, the results identify and quantify compounds present within the formed aerosols. We can support…
